PM Narendra Modi:

Absolutely delighted by this news.

Dholavira was an important urban centre and is one of our most important linkages with our past.

It is a must visit, especially for those interested in history, culture and archaeology.

I first visited Dholavira during my student days and was mesmerised by the place.

As CM of Gujarat, I had the opportunity to work on aspects relating to heritage conservation and restoration in Dholavira.

Our team also worked to create tourism-friendly infrastructure there.
